NOTE: Before using for the first time, clean with a sponge or dishcloth along with hot, soapy water. Always use nylon, hard rubber or wooden kitchen baking tools. Do not use metal spoons, spatulas or knives. After baking, clean bakeware (interior and exterior) with a plastic or nylon pad in hot soapy water or in an automatic dishwasher. Do not scour with steel wool, metal scouring pads or abrasive cleaners. Be sure to dry thoroughly before storing.
